INTRODUCTION TO COLLEGE CORPS

STATEWIDE COHORT EXPERIENCE

Statewide Cohort Objectives Fellows learn:

Leadership skills: Self-awareness, confidence, problem-solving Bridging and cross-cultural collaboration skills Fellows gain:

Campus and statewide recognition for their service Access to a network of local leaders, elected officials and thought leaders - for inspiration and professional development Fellows feel:

Connected to each other across diverse backgrounds and geographies Connected to California Volunteers and the larger statewide initiative United by a common purpose, within and across Focus Areas

SOLIDARITY

BRIDGING

INSPIRATION

(Jen) Fellows are carrying these questions of: Who am I?, Who am I in relationship with?, and How do I process the experience I’m having?

Source: Bridging to a Better Future, Einhorn Collaborative

We know that this generation is already leading.

We can imagine that this Fellowship might be the first time a scholar from the North State has an opportunity to lead and learn alongside a scholar from SoCal.

Or that scholars with two very different ways of thinking, leading, living come together around the issue of climate change or food insecurity.

We know that we live in an era of political, social, racial and economic discord.

We can imagine that this Fellowship could help connect, engage, create opportunity to solve problems with people of diverse lived experiences.

We can help foster critical conversations around diversity, equity, access.

As we remain grounded in the College Corps Goals, we can design and implement a program that spurs individual and communal change.

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS CV#23-116

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

Award a contract to Lead Program Manager / Event Production Agency Organize a series of in-person (possibly hybrid) events bringing together thousands of college students who are participating in the College Corps program.

These events are critical components of CV’s strategy to cultivate a Statewide Cohort Experience based upon a shared sense of identity and purpose for a diverse group of College Corps Fellows from across California.

A maximum amount of $1,000,000 is available for the duration of the contract period (covering two cohorts of College Corps Fellows) to support the execution of the Scope of Work.

An almost equal share of the available resources will likely be invested in the first and second years of the contract period.

These funds will support virtual and in-person events focused at the third and fourth cohort of Fellows, totaling up to 7,000 Fellows, over the two-year period.
